There is no "HP secret password". Ask the person who set the password to
help you.

If by power on password you mean a BIOS password (something below the
windows level), most PC makers provide information on how to reset or
blank-out such a password. Go to the Compaq support website for details,
which vary among PCs.

Usually this will be something like removing the battery on the motherboard
and waiting a prescribed amount of time, or it could be installing a
temporary jumper. But, do not guess, since doing it wrong could destroy the
PC. Go see Compaq.
